More great Rush wisdom. Anyone who makes a difference will have enemies. There is no virtue to being afraid to stand up because you won't be liked.

If you "want to matter" you probably have major ego issues! We ALL matter, but some like to place their power in celebrity.IP: Logged |

Generally, celebrities receive more "hate mail" then "like mail".So its more of a reality of being a celebrity. IP: Logged |

Well, Obama is not liked by millions of Rush Fans but he is refusing to kowtow to their demands and is doing what he thinks is right. Thus, he genuinely wants to matter without pleasing everybody. The Logic of Rush should apply to everyone.IP: Logged |

One does not need to "matter".
One needs to make an influence (with the help of many of course).
If creating conflict is done only for publicity then its just a waste of time and should be outlawed imo.IP: Logged |

It's incredible that you'd only be noticing the truth of this now. Seems rather late as far as epiphanies go.IP: Logged |
